USING FOR FIRST TIME..
Before using the slow cooker for the first time
Remove all labels and tags from the product.
Wash the ceramic pot and glass lid in hot soapy water with a sponge or a dish cloth,
rinse thoroughly and dry.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT IMMERSE THE SLOW COOKER BASE IN WATER.
Note: During initial use you may notice a slight odor due to the burning off of
manufacturing residues. This is completely normal and will disappear after a few uses.
AUTO/DEFROST Setting:
The AUTO/DEFROST setting allows the user to set the slow cooker to cook frozen
food for the day and be ready to server 8-10 hours later. When set to AUTO
DEFROST, the Slow Cooker will cook on HIGH until the food defrosts and reaches a
pre-set temperature, then switches to LOW and maintains a constant low cooking
temperature.
However if you wish to extend the cooking period, you can use the LOW setting and if
you wish to shorten the cooking period you can use the HIGH setting.
HOW TO USE..
• Place the base on a dry, level, heat resistant surface, away from the edge of the
work surface. Do not use on the floor.
• Place food and other ingredients into the ceramic pot, and place the pot into the
base. Cover with the glass lid. If you need to pre-cook or brown foods prior to
slow cooking, this must be done in a pan. Do not try to brown or pre-cook food in
the slow cooker.
• Set the control knob to the OFF position before plugging the unit into the main
socket.
• Switch off and unplug the slow cooker after cooking is complete and remove the
ceramic pot using heat resistant gloves or mitts.
CAUTION: BE CAREFUL NOT TO TOUCH THE BASE UNIT AFTER COOKING
AS IT WILL REMAIN HOT.
About slow cooking
• Slow cooking has always been the best way to prepare a nutritious hot meal with
minimum preparation and maximum free time away from the kitchen.
• Traditionally slow cooking has centered on soups and casseroles but with this
oval ceramic pot you can also produce most modern family meals and dinner
party dishes. This pot is convenient as well as looking good enough to take
straight to the table for serving. (Always place the slow cooker on a heat proof
mat or surface).
• This method of cooking is ideal for preparing tougher cuts of meat, giving them
the long, gentle simmering that ensures that they become tender and full of flavor.
